- Solid Motherboard - Donovan, 26 May 2025
This motherboard offers solid connectivity with built-in Wi-Fi and PCIe 4.0 support, making it great for Ryzen builds. Its compact Micro ATX form factor fits well in smaller cases while still providing essential features. Just don't forget to plug in the antennae XD
- Excellent! - Laone, 11 January 2025
This product is great perfect for a budget build and also allows upgradability within the AM4 platform. Initially went with the B450M A PRO MAX along with some optional adapters it requires like a separate Bluetooth and Wi-Fi adapters, and luckily Joshua came to the rescue with some effective and affordable recommendations. This product already has Bluetooth and Wi-Fi that just works from the box on my end and is PCIE 4.0 compared the B450M. The only downside I would say is that the second M.2 slot only supports PCIE 3.0 which is not something to complain about really considering the affordability and other features it packs. Wi-Fi performs great for me as I am no where near fast speeds to notice much about it. Bluetooth 4.2 on the other hand has limits when it comes to range compared to 5.0 so it can have some cut offs if you're planning on connecting and move about. But overall, this is a great small product and offers tons of value.
- Very satisfied - Kagiso, 12 August 2024
It's a really good motherboard, supports PCIe gen 4 and I didn't even need to manually download the WiFi and Bluetooth drivers.
Kinda struggled to find the front panel USB 3.0 though, but overall, it's a very decent motherboard and I highly recommend it - Excellent for gamers and graphics professionals - Tiaan, 12 April 2024
Don't let the simple looks of this motherboard fool you, it has a lot of features such as 5G Wi-fi, Bluetooth, a lot of RGB headers and a ton of tweaking options in the BIOS.
Don't even need to worry about drivers, the motherboard downloads the drivers for you.
For RGB builds, make sure to use compatible RGB RAM for MSI Centre. Some settings don't sync well between the RAM RGB compared to the rest of the system.
Also make sure the case used doesn't obstruct cables from the ATX and SATA slots. - Quick Service - Petrus, 7 March 2024
The service was quick and received all communications. 10x Thanx
The product is good and no complains. Courier delivered
Again thank you and thank you for the service and website that made it easy to order.
Status of In Stock was In Stock - Meets expectations - Christiaan, 28 July 2023
Simple to update the BIOS using the BIOS Flash (without a 3rd Generation CPU).
Works great with Fedora-Linux, I did not even need to download Bluetooth or WiFi drivers.
Front panel USB 3.0 placement is a bit awkward, but it is not a major issue.
Would I recommend it? Definitely.
Overall a good motherboard. - Not very impressed - Daniel, 9 July 2023
I've had A520 boards from other brands that were better than this.
It's a very average board with a few design flaws in my opinion.. mainly the positioning of the USB 3.0 connector being quite awkward and I'm not a big fan of the BIOS.
The wifi and bluetooth drivers had to be manually downloaded and installed from the MSI website in order for them to work. Overall it's not a bad entry level board.
